Great thoughts on the S&M video. I very much enjoy the song because it’s a fun depiction of kink and not the sterotypical M/f dark and edgy stuff, and I love that Rihanna didn’t shy away from the song because of Chris Brown – s&m and abuse are not the same.

The first time I heard “S&M” on the radio, it was edited like, “Sticks and stones may break my bones/but _____ and _____ excite me”…I guess a woman enthusiastically embracing kink-dom is DIRTY AND WRONG but singing forlornly about an abusive relationship is A-OKAY~!![/rage]

Luckily, I heard it last night on the radio again and it was unedited…so yay!
